Phil woke up and smiled, kissing Charlie on the forehead. "Good Morning beautiful."

"Morning." She smiled. "What do we have planned for today?"

"Just hanging out. Maybe go swimming or fishing." She smiled. "I might sketch some today."

"Sounds good. We better get out there before Randy and Jaycee wonder what's going on."

He smiled and they headed out of the tent. They saw Randy and Jaycee sitting by the fire. Both looked up when they approached.

"Well, look who finally decided to wake up." Randy said to them.

"Yeah, we're up." Phil replied. He turned to Randy. "How about we go get some more firewood?"

"Great." Randy followed Phil toward the woods.

Charlie looked at Jaycee. "Everything okay?"

"Yeah."

"You're such a bad liar."

"Randy and I broke up."

"Why? I thought things were going good between you guys."

"They were...but..."

"Oh My God! You still have feelings for my brother don't you?"

"Yes, I do." She looked at her best friend. "What? I know I shouldn't still have feelings for him after everything but I can't turn them off."

"And Randy is okay with that?"

"We talked and we understand each other." She turned to the fire. "Charlie, I know my feelings are probably stupid. I mean John hurt me a lot. But I can't turn them off."

"You should." Charlie sighed. "He will just hurt you. Randy is better."

"I know that but I don't have those feelings for Randy and he knows that and understands."

Charlie nodded. "And just for the record, you're my best friend and I would never think your feelings were stupid. Even if I don't agree with them. You can't help who you fall in love with." She said biting her lip a little.

"You did have sex with my brother didn't you?" Charlie blushed. "Oh man, ewww." Charlie laughed.

Mike and John were at the local burger joint hanging out at a table alone when Maryse, Evan and her clique walked in. Mike rolled his eyes and looked at his menu.

"What the hell does she see in the nerd?"

"He jumps when she says to." Mike said. They looked up when they heard a girl shriek and saw that Maryse was standing there laughing while the girl from the lunch table they'd been at was covered in a strawberry milkshake. Mike sat there for a moment before he got up and walked over. "Why don't you just leave her alone Maryse?"

"She's a geek. And geeks don't have a place here."

"And snotty, bitchy pregnant girls do?"

"Watch how you talk to her." Evan said pushing Maryse behind him.

"You know, I have a rule against hitting girls. And if I was to punch you, that'd be like hitting a girl." He looked over at Natalie. "But rules are made to be broken right?" He pulled back and hit Evan and grabbed Natalie's hand running out to the car before anyone could react. Lexie and John barely hopped in before he started the car and drove off. John looked at him as they drove down the road and laughed.

"That was fucking awesome dude." Mike looked back at the girl covered in milkshake and pulled into the driveway of his house.

"What are we doing here?" She asked.

"You want to ride around wearing milkshake?" She shook her head. "I'll get you some clothes and a towel and a bag to put your clothes in." He said as he got out. "You know, I don't even know your name."

"Natalie." She said.

"Nice to meet you Natalie. Now let's get you cleaned up."

The four of them headed into Mike's house.

Phil looked at Randy as they gathered some firewood. "What's up with you?"

"Jaycee and I broke up."

"What? Why? You were perfect for her."

"She doesn't have those feelings for me."

"Oh god, she still wants Cena doesn't she?" Phil shook his head. "No, not happening. After everything he did, she isn't going near him."

"You can't make that choice for her. She's her own person and you can't help who you love. Would it change anything if Cena told you not to come near Charlie?"

"He did tell me that."

"And yet here she is with us on this camping trip and sharing a tent with you. And you guys had sex. So it doesn't matter Phil. The heart wants what it wants and I just want Jaycee happy. Even if it's not with me." Phil nodded.

"I see what you mean. I just wish my sister didn't love him."

"You better be careful. Charlie is his sister and even though they aren't close, she might not put up with you insulting her brother forever."

Phil thought about what Randy said but it didn't change that Phil hated John.

Mike, Natalie, John and Lexie sat in Mike's house after Natalie had changed clothes. "I better be going home." Natalie said to them.

"Why? We can all hang out?" Mike replied.

"That's not a good idea." Lexie said getting up. "We're friends with Jaycee and it wouldn't be right to be here. Besides, neither of us plan on sleeping with either of you."

John looked at Mike and shook his head. He had no intention of making any move on either of them. "Mike, I'm going to head out anyway. See you tomorrow."

John left and Mike looked at the two girls standing there. "You know, for girls that don't like being judged, you guys are pretty damn quick to make assumptions about people you don't really know." He sighed. "Keep the clothes. C'mon, I'll drive you home."

They walked out with him and were soon on their way home. They dropped Lexie off first and then drove to Natalie's house.

"Thanks for the ride and clothes and what you did to Maryse."

"Not a problem." He said to her. "Natalie, I hope you will keep an open mind about me and John. There is more to the story then you know."

She nodded. "For what it's worth, Maryse is a horrible skank for cheating on you. You're actually a pretty nice guy." He smiled.

"Thanks. See you around school." He said as he watched her walk into the house. He drove off.

Charlie and Phil were out by the lake and he was sketching some of the rocks and trees. He looked over at her as she came out of the lake in her bathing suit, the water running down her skin in beads and smiled. She was so beautiful.

"You look pretty deep in thought." She said as she walked up to him and kissed him.

"I was just thinking about how much I love this. Being here with you." He said as he put the sketch pad down and settled her in between his legs with her back resting against his chest. He wrapped his arms around her and she smiled.

"This has been an amazing trip." She said.

"Do you regret yesterday?"

"No. I don't." She said. He smiled and leaned down kissing her on the temple. "I do love you Phil."

"I love you too Charlie." He said. "We better get back. Jaycee and Randy will have lunch done soon.

John arrived home after leaving Mike's and headed upstairs to his room. He sighed and sat down on the bed. His mind wondered to Jaycee and Charlie and what they were doing on the camping trip. He hated to think that Charlie might be having sex with Phil but it bothered him more to think about Jaycee having sex with Randy. He got out the photo he had of Jaycee. Mike was right. If he really wanted something with her, he would have to tell the truth.
